It was never on FOX NEWS. Sean Hannity said it on his radio show. the Sean Hannity RADIO SHOW is not FOX NEWS.


of course the PROG LIGHTBULD doesn't exactly burn bright so it doesn't shock me...




It is ironic that a thread about fake news would in fact BE fake news. LOL.




The linked story doesn't mention Fox News a single time.


beb0p needs to do what SEAN HANNITY did and issue an apology. At least Hannity has the excuse that he REPORTED WHAT HE READ... beb0P however, read an article that didn't mention Fox News a single time, then posted a thread attacking Fox News.


Hannity made a mistake. I don't think beb0p did.
I noticed the OP and her minions have nothing to say now.

Let me use liberal speak:

Soooooooooooooooooooo you think that no one is going to fact check your so called fact checking, there OP?

Even if you're right, here's the thing:

Very few people watches MSNBC.

Almost every right-wingers watches Fox.

The difference is that they don't "fall" for fake stories, they just flat out make them up....apparently after talking to Hillary's camp in emails back and forth for awhile discussing who is going to say what, what questions will be asked, cut out this paragraph it does't look good, add this in, take out that word and use this world instead - it will make people believe X....this thread is an embarrassing fail for the OP.
This is a perfect example of what the Economist described as the post-truth world- when confronted with the truth, right-wingers will just dismiss the truth by saying it's a conspiracy.

Post-Truth World - Yes, I'd Lie to You

Political lies used to imply that there was a truth—one that had to be prevented from coming out. Evidence, consistency and scholarship had political power. Today a growing number of politicians and pundits simply no longer care. They are content with what Stephen Colbert, an American comedian, calls “truthiness”: ideas which “feel right” or “should be true”. They deal in insinuation (“A lot of people are saying...” is one of Mr Trump’s favourite phrases) and question the provenance, rather than accuracy, of anything that goes against them (“They would say that, wouldn’t they?”). And when the distance between what feels true and what the facts say grows too great, it can always be bridged with a handy conspiracy theory.

You are a perfect example that illustrate the point of this thread - that the right-wing can invent their own "truth" and base their reality on it.

Exclamation Clinton Brings on herself.

People accuse Fox of targeting the Clintons. when in fact the Clintons are finding increasing difficult to hide their past thru the Clinton Foundations and collusion with the State Department!
